Turks and Caicos Islands: 5 Day Forecast

Ahoy from Mudjin Harbour in Middle Caicos, Boaby Rock Point in Grand Turk, and Grace Bay in Providenciales. Today in Mudjin Harbour the sun rises at 6:31 AM and sets at 7:06 PM, with the moon 83% lit for tonight's voyage. Skies look mostly clear after sunset in spots, so it may be a fine night to stargaze, and low in the western sky after dusk ye may catch bright Venus before it slips below the horizon.

Monday brings good looking weather overall, though each harbor has its own mood. Morning starts warm near 83 to 84 F, with humidity around 78 to 79%, and with the humidity it will feel like 89 to 93 F in Mudjin and Grace Bay, and 91 to 95 F off Grand Turk. Winds blow easterly around 13 to 19 Miles Per Hour, strongest at Grace Bay and Boaby Rock Point, with waves around 3 feet at Grace Bay, 4 to 5 feet at Mudjin Harbour, and 5 to 6 feet at Boaby Rock Point. Clouds stay very low through the morning, so beach time and boating both get a bright start, though a few light sunshowers drift by now and then. By afternoon cloud cover builds, peaking near fully cloudy for a time at all three spots, and temperatures top out around 84 to 86 F. With the humidity it will feel like 92 to 99 F, hottest in Mudjin mid afternoon. Around dinner time, skies clear back out fastest in Mudjin and Grace Bay, while Grand Turk keeps a bit more chop with 6 foot seas. Evening stays warm near 82 to 84 F with light showers passing, and rain chances are highest later tonight. Boaby Rock Point stands out as the roughest of the three today, with stronger easterly winds and the biggest seas for mariners.

Tuesday turns cloudier across the islands, but still workable for many outings, especially earlier in the day and closer to Grace Bay. Temperatures hold near 81 to 83 F most of the day, with humidity around 74 to 77%, and with the humidity it will feel like 87 to 90 F. Winds shift more southeasterly and blow around 13 to 18 Miles Per Hour. Waves run about 3 feet in Grace Bay, 4 to 5 feet at Mudjin Harbour, and 4 to 5 feet at Boaby Rock Point, so Providenciales keeps the friendliest water. From morning through afternoon, skies stay mostly to fully cloudy in all three locations, with light showers common and steadier showers developing later in the day, especially in Grand Turk where rain picks up around dinner and evening. For outdoor dining, dinner time in Grace Bay and Mudjin still looks manageable with warm air, breezy conditions, and only scattered showers, while Grand Turk gets the wettest stretch after 5 PM. Grand Turk is again the outlier, not for temperature, but for the stronger evening showers and brisker wind over open water.
